Suggest Treatment For Bronchitis
Question: Hello,
I have been experiencing severe throat pain along with chest pain and coghing up alot of discharge. Today day 9 of this I saw a Dr who advised I had Bronchitis.
This evening I was eating fish and felt a small bone get stuck in my throat. I can not tell if it has passed. I feel a sharp terrible pain on the rear left side if my throat. It gets worse if I talk, yawn or swallow my own salvia.
I started coughing to try and remove it but that ended up with me vommiting.
I tried eating bread, drinking salt water, drinking olive oil and nothing has changed.
I cant tell if the pain is from the bone being lodged in my throat or if its passed and the pain is from it being irrated by the bone and bronchitis.
What should i do?
